Chapter 511: Chapter 511 Jamie and Ellen’s Story: Acquittal

Love...

When Ellen heard this, she felt disgusted.

Ellen thought, look, even my body was feeling ashamed of the person I had once liked.

Even my body felt ashamed and disgusted!

Seeing her pale face, Kenyon gripped the steering wheel slightly and said, "Forget it. It doesn’t matter anymore."

Kenyon thought, this was indeed not an important matter.

Whether she loved or not was that important. True love was tolerance and acceptance.

Could it be that because Ellen did not like me, I would stop this one-sided love?

Not.

Therefore, I didn’t care too much about this matter.

Kenyon’s Adam’s apple moved. He said, "Go in. The wind is strong outside."

After Kenyon finished speaking, he started the engine. In the roar of the engine, Kenyon suddenly heard Ellen speak.

"I don’t love him anymore."

Other than the sound of the engine, there was no other sound.

The night wind blew gently, and the faint yellow light shone on Ellen’s face. Ellen’s watery eyes looked unusually flirtatious.

Putting aside her tortured heart, just looking at her appearance, Ellen was still very young and beautiful.

Kenyon pursed his red lips slightly and said, "I hope everything goes smoothly at the court trial."

After waiting for a few seconds, Ellen spoke again, "Ken, I will never love ... love anyone in my life."

Ellen’s voice was not loud, but it was exceptionally clear.

In the soft tone, there was a kind of hopeless sadness.

Ellen used to be a girl who yearned for love, but after that humiliation and torture, she lost the ability to love and be loved.

Ellen even doubted herself for a while, wondering if she deserved it.

Ellen and Jamie were like two lunatics with scars all over their bodies. They always competed for being more ruthless.

Jamie did not intend to let her go, and Ellen also did not intend to let Jamie go.

The ending of the two should be a tragedy.

Kenyon looked at Ellen and said gently, "It doesn’t matter. Ellen, even if you don’t know how to love someone, it doesn’t matter."

Kenyon knew what Ellen meant. Ellen was telling Kenyon that she could no longer love anyone, including Kenyon.

Kenyon said, "I will keep you company."

"Too silly."

Ellen didn’t know how to persuade Kenyon. It seemed that Ellen had used all kinds of methods. Kenyon was still stubborn.

Ellen had also thought about it. After Jamie’s matter was settled, Ellen would take Bobby to find a secluded place to live.

Ellen wanted to live a life that no one cared about.

Ellen thought, when Bobby grew up safely, my mission will be completed.

The contract between me and this world will be over.

Kenyon said, "Go in quickly. The night wind is quite cold. Don’t catch a cold."

Ellen nodded and entered the corridor first.

It was not until the lights on the sixth floor lit up that Kenyon raised the window and slowly left.

...

Soon, it was the day of the trial.

Ellen attended the court trial. she wore a red dress and a black hat. Ellen was elegant and beautiful.

Kenyon did not come over until the door of the court closed. Ellen did not know why.

Ellen was a little dazed and sent Kenyon a message.

"Are you busy?"

Last night, Kenyon said that he would be at the scene today. Even if Kenyon could not come, Kenyon would tell Ellen.

Kenyon would not go missing for no reason.

A few minutes later, before Kenyon could reply, Ellen thought about whether she should make a call and ask what was going on.

However, before Ellen could open her phone, the inner corner door had already been opened.

Jamie was escorted out from inside.

Jamie was dressed in clean clothes. He was calm, and his handsome face did not show any signs of dejection.

If not for the green circle around his chin, no one would believe that Jamie had been in the prison for nearly two weeks.

As soon as Jamie sat down, his eyes locked on Ellen who was sitting in the back row. Jamie smiled meaningfully.

Ellen’s body seemed to react naturally, and goosebumps appeared on her skin.

"Miss, are you alright?"

A woman who was listening by the side saw that Ellen was trembling and her face was pale, so she could not help but ask out of concern.

"It’s fine. I’m fine," Ellen forced herself to smile.

The woman asked, "Miss, are you Mr. McBride’s friend?"

Ellen shook her head. and said, "No."

The woman asked, "Oh, is that the same as me?"

Ellen looked up, not understanding what the woman meant.

The woman felt that Ellen was very beautiful and her pale face added a bit of a pitiful charm.

This made the woman start to feel sorry for Ellen.

"I mean you are the person that Mr. McBride helped," The woman explained.

When Ellen heard this, her fake smile froze, and her expression became unnatural.

However, the woman did not notice and continued, "I was selling sandwiches at a small stall at the entrance of Maple Church. There was an accident last year and my leg was broken. Jamie found out, and he contacted someone to install artificial limbs for me. He also took care of my business. Every year, he came to Maple Church four times to pray. Every time, he would bring me some gifts for me."

"Maple Church, you set up a stall at Maple Church?" Ellen’s face became paler.

Whenever Ellen missed her parents, she would go to Maple Church to pray.

"Well, my husband passed away early, and we didn’t have a son or a daughter for physical reasons."

The woman clasped her hands together and made a gesture of worshipping. She continued, "Fortunately, the priest of the Maple Church helped me and kept me in the shed at the entrance of the Maple Church. I have made a living by selling food to tourists who passed by."

The more Ellen looked at the woman, the more familiar she felt.

It turned out to be the woman selling food at the entrance of the Maple Church.

The woman said, "Mr. McBride has been paying respects to his old friends in the Maple Church for several years. He went to Maple Church four times a year. I heard that he did this because he missed his girlfriend. Besides, in the past, his girlfriend had always been to Maple Church to pray for her parents. Later, I heard that his girlfriend didn’t die and came back. Even though, he still went to pay respects to his girlfriend’s family."

Ellen began to feel a headache. She bit her lips and wanted the woman to stop talking.

However, the woman looked at Jamie with an expression of admiration. She smiled and said, "You don’t know how many good things Mr. McBride has done. In the beginning, few people go to Maple Church. It was Mr. McBride who paid for the treatment of priests in the church. I heard that Mr. McBride also sponsored many schools and welfare institutes. Those who were funded by him knew that he spent most of his time in Maple Church and would choose to come to Maple Church to pray. After a while, more and more people go to Maple Church."

The woman pointed to the people on the side and explained to Ellen, "Look, these people are all people that Mr. McBride helped. When they heard that Mr. McBride committed some economic crime, no one believed it. Mr. McBride used all his money to do good deeds. What kind of mistakes could he make?"

Ellen’s body began to tremble. She stuttered, "Please ... stop talking."

The woman noticed that something was wrong with Ellen and said in a panic, "Miss, what’s wrong? Do you want me to call an ambulance for you?"

"It’s fine. I’ll go out for a while," Ellen said.

When Ellen looked up, she saw that half of the people in the seat were looking at Jamie with grateful eyes.

In an instant, a creepy feeling was born.

Ellen thought, the evil person in my eyes was the great philanthropist that others were talking about. It was ridiculous.

When Ellen got up, she tripped and made a sound.

Jamie looked over. Ellen subconsciously clenched her fists and a buzzing sound appeared in her ears. Ellen couldn’t even hear what the judge said.

Ellen stumbled out of the room, came to the corridor, grabbed the pillar, and slowly squatted down.

Ellen felt that her heart was about to jump out.

Ellen thought, it was as if something had been overturned in an instant.

How could Jamie be the great person that others spoke of? Wouldn’t it be too ridiculous?

How did he treat me?

He had humiliated me and made me drink with the fat bosses like a whore. He even asked me to serve those people at the same time.

He had also slapped me, forced me to jump into the sea to feed the fish, and also did not let me go when I was tortured by the illness.

There were too many ... too many nightmarish memories...

The good person that others spoke of was like a devil to me!

Ellen did not know that in the five years that she had left, Jamie had indeed tried to be a good person that others spoke of, and Jamie felt that it was not bad.

However, his stubbornness was brought out from his bones, and he had never been normal when it came to dealing with Ellen.

Jamie could not stand that Ellen did not love him, and he could not stand that Ellen loved someone else.

Once Jamie found out that she had these tendencies, he wished that he could destroy the world and bury himself with her.

Therefore, there were no true good or bad people in other people’s eyes. People who were very good in some people’s eyes were sometimes people who were very bad in other people’s eyes.

After a long time, Ellen felt that her heartbeat had returned to normal.

Ellen slowly got up and called Kenyon. Until the third time, no one answered.

Ellen thought, it would never be like this. Kenyon would never go missing like this. Kenyon would not ignore her call.

Ellen felt very uneasy.

At this time, the bustling crowd in the hall was restless.

Ellen saw the woman from before coming out from inside at a glance. It turned out that the court trial had ended.

Ellen thought, how could it be so fast?

Ellen’s uneasiness grew bit by bit. The last time she felt so uneasy was when her father jumped off the building...

"Miss..."

When the woman saw Ellen, she warmly called her and then walked over. She said, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Much better."

The woman said, "That’s good. Once the good news came, you felt better at the same time."

The woman was relaxed.

Ellen was uneasy and asked her, "Good news? What good news?"

"Oh, by the way, you still don’t know." The woman smiled and said, "There is new evidence. It shows that someone framed Mr. McBride, including the contracts."

The woman held Ellen’s cold hand and said excitedly, "Mr. McBride has been released."

Ellen froze, her hands not even a bit warm.

Ellen thought, innocent... Release...

I had imagined many scenes and also imagined the scenes after Jamie was released.

After all, he was rich. What he committed was not a murder, but a crime of economic contract. As long as he was fined enough, he would be locked up for a few years at most.

But I had never imagined that it would be so fast!

It was too fast beyond my imagination.

In just a few days, he had come out.

The woman thought that Ellen was just as happy as her, so she said with a smile, "You are happy too, right? Do you want to see Mr. McBride? He is surrounded by many people over there. Let me take you there!"

The woman pulled Ellen, who was as stiff as a zombie, and did not notice that Ellen was numb and passive now.

The woman said to Jamie, "Mr. McBride, there is a beautiful young lady here who is also here to thank you."

Jamie’s eyes were calm and sharp. He looked at Ellen, who was like a puppet, and laughed.

"Oh? Thank me for what?"

The woman was stunned by the question. She turned to look at Ellen and said, "Miss, what do you thank Mr. McBride for? Tell me, he is right here..."

Outside the court, the cold white light shone on Ellen’s face, making the veins under her skin clear.

Her face was too white, like a dead person, making people worried.

The woman calmed down, and she saw it.

She shook Ellen’s hand and said, "Miss, why is your hand still so cold? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Ellen felt powerless from head to toe, but she told herself to calm down. Ellen thought, she could not be knocked down just as Jamie came out.

"What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Jamie reached out and took Ellen’s hand from the woman’s hand. His tone was abnormally gentle.

"Don’t touch me!"

Ellen was like a little sparrow that had been caught by the foot. She suddenly retreated and then looked at Jamie with horror in her eyes.

That gaze was filled with hatred, disgust, and determination, but there was no gratitude.

The woman opened her mouth and felt that she must have made a mistake.

Out of goodwill, she held skinny Ellen and said, "Miss, don’t be afraid..."

The atmosphere became strange.

The woman did not dare to speak. She felt that she had done something bad out of kindness.

The woman thought, Mr. McBride was a good person, but this beautiful lady was pitiful. She did not look like a bad person either.

Who was the good person and who was the bad person?

"Jamie!"

A woman’s brisk voice broke the strange atmosphere.

Kaya, who was wearing a white dress, quickly walked over and handed the bouquet to Jamie. "Jamie, congratulations."

Jamie reached out to take it and said, "Thank you."

It was not easy for Kaya to get Jamie’s gentle words. Kaya felt that it was worth it no matter how much she paid.

"It’s good that you know. Why don’t you treat me to a good meal?"

Jamie quickly glanced at Ellen from the corner of his eyes. He turned to look at Kaya. His expression became a little gentler. Jamie said, "Let’s go."

The two of them left together.

Ellen felt as if her entire body was soaked in sweat. Her legs went soft. Fortunately, the woman held her.

Ellen thought, I was wrong!

I was completely wrong!

I thought that the Hawkins family would be angry because of Emerson and Jamie’s attitude toward the marriage. I thought the Hawkins family would try their best to protect themselves.

What I thought was right, but I had ignored Kaya.

Kaya liked Jamie, so on this matter, she might ask her family to help her do something.

From the short conversation of them just now, it could be heard that this was the truth.

The woman saw that Ellen was sweating. She was worried about Ellen and said, "Miss, let me take you to the hospital."

"No, thank you."

Ellen shook off the woman’s hand and hurriedly chased after Jamie.
